Emsella Chair for Vaginal Tightening
Vaginal concerns that many people worry about but are reluctant to share, such as vaginal looseness, lack of tightness, and urinary incontinence, are issues that many women face. These problems can affect confidence and daily life. The Emsella chair is the solution for women who want to enhance tightness or have mild urinary leakage from activities like coughing or sneezing, but don’t want surgery. Simply sitting on the chair can help restore vaginal tightness and reduce urinary leakage. Many may wonder how just sitting on a chair can tighten the vagina. Today, let’s take a closer look at this chair.
What is the Emsella Chair?
The Emsella chair is a pelvic muscle treatment technology that has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Union (EU) for safety and effectiveness in treating pelvic muscle weakness, urinary incontinence, and other related issues.
The Fit & Fine Chair, or Emsella chair, is an innovative treatment that helps tighten the pelvic muscles. It works by using high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology, which sends electromagnetic waves to the pelvic muscles, causing rapid, short contractions similar to voluntary muscle tightening but much more effective. It is ideal for women experiencing urinary leakage, vaginal laxity, and similar concerns.
However, simply sitting on the chair may not be enough for patients with more severe issues, such as significant vaginal looseness that affects daily life. In such cases, you can seek consultation at Lady Care by Masterpiece Hospital, where we provide expert advice and solutions for women’s intimate health issues, with experienced obstetricians and gynecologists offering targeted solutions.
Causes of Pelvic Floor Muscle Weakness
Pelvic floor muscle weakness occurs when the muscles lose their strength and function, causing internal pelvic organs such as the uterus, bladder, or large intestine to shift downward from their original positions. This condition is most commonly found in older women.
Risk factors for pelvic floor weakness include:
- Aging: Postmenopausal women are at a higher risk due to decreased estrogen levels, which weaken pelvic muscles.
- Pregnancy and Vaginal Childbirth: Difficult labor, assisted delivery using forceps or vacuum extraction, and vaginal childbirth itself can overstretch and weaken pelvic floor muscles.
- Chronic Constipation: Straining during bowel movements can weaken the pelvic floor over time.
- Chronic Coughing: Persistent coughing increases abdominal pressure, which can push pelvic organs downward.
- Heavy Lifting: Frequent lifting of heavy objects increases intra-abdominal pressure, leading to vaginal and pelvic organ prolapse.
- Excess Body Weight: Being overweight puts additional pressure on the abdomen, causing pelvic organs to shift downward and become weak.
- Certain Medical Conditions: Diseases that increase abdominal pressure, such as high blood pressure, can contribute to pelvic floor muscle weakness.
Who Is Suitable for Using the Emsella Chair?
The Emsella chair is ideal for:
- Women experiencing urinary leakage, especially during exercise, coughing, or sneezing, disrupts daily life.
- Women with vaginal looseness, dryness, or lack of tightness, leading to irritation or pain during intercourse.
- Women with difficulty controlling urination.
- Those with mild sexual dysfunction that does not require surgical treatment.
Benefits of the Emsella Chair (Fit & Fine Chair)
The Emsella Chair, also known as the Fit & Fine Chair, is an innovative solution designed to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. It stimulates the pelvic muscles to contract at their maximum intensity, equivalent to performing 11,000 Kegel exercises in just 28 minutes.
Benefits for Women
- Helps reduce urinary incontinence.
- Helps alleviate pelvic organ prolapse.
- Lifts and tightens the vaginal area.
- Enhances vaginal tightness, improving sexual satisfaction.
- Reduces the severity of vaginal flatulence (air passing from the vagina).
How to Use the Emsella Chair
Treating feminine wellness with the Emsella Chair (Fit & Fine Chair) requires minimal preparation compared to surgical procedures. Patients can remain fully clothed while sitting in the center of the chair. The Emsella Chair emits electromagnetic waves that target the pelvic floor area, creating vibrations that cause the muscles to contract and relax naturally.
Since the treatment involves electromagnetic stimulation, patients should avoid wearing jewelry. Additionally, individuals with piercings or implanted materials in the genital area must inform their doctor before undergoing the procedure.
Each session lasts 20–30 minutes, and doctors typically recommend 2–3 sessions per week for 4–6 weeks to achieve optimal results.
Possible Side Effects After Using the Emsella Chair
- A warm or tingling sensation in the pelvic area.
- Temporary muscle soreness in the pelvic region.
- Nausea, vomiting, or dizziness due to electromagnetic stimulation.
- Frequent urination as the body adjusts.
These side effects typically subside on their own within 1–2 days after the procedure.
Precautions for Using the Emsella Chair
- Not suitable for individuals with electromagnetic hypersensitivity.
- Not for use by individuals with electronic implants such as pacemakers, cochlear implants, or other medical devices.
- Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.
- Avoid use if you have underlying health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, cancer, or neurological disorders.
- Shouldn’t be used alongside certain medications, including anti-inflammatory drugs, pain relievers, and sleeping aids.
- Remove all metal accessories from the body before sitting on the chair.
Additionally, doctors may advise avoiding sexual activity for 24 hours after the treatment to ensure safety and optimize recovery.
